I'm struggling to read your comment without the inference "culture and values " == mass surveillance. Why do we have to accept that American devices are rooted at all? To me, "American values" means that US citens' communication isn't tapped without a warrant obtained with probable cause of a crime. Instead it sounds like I'm supposed to choose between a surveillance state.
